Australian Boxing/SM Memorial thread

Bradley Skeete, who was mentioned as a possible opponent for Jeff Horn a few months back, was demolished inside two rounds by Kerman Lejarraga today. People were talking up Skeete's chances against Horn. But looking at today's performance he wouldn't have given him too much trouble.

 

Billy Dib now being trained by Jeff Fenech. Been with him since late last year.

 

Well, styles do make fights. The Basque is a pure KO artist unlike the Hornet and thus far appears to be a bigger puncher than Horn, although Horn does work the body well and that's reportedly where Skeete was done in.

 

Styles certainly do make fights. But Skeete clearly not as good as some thought. He got out jabbed before being brutalized by Lejarraga.

 

Looks like Kambosos Jnr will be fighting Jose Forero of Panama. On paper his record doesn't look so flash but he has 13 wins with 11 KO's and has been in with some good fighters. I think it will be a tough fight for Kambosos.

 

Kambosos ranked 27 fights Forero ranked 539. Early night for George.

 

Lol "let ya nuts hang" damn that was a demolition job.

Only Forero fifth fight in over 3 .5 yrs and being ko twice. George has sparred over 150 rds for this fight. George will be ready and show what he is capable of.

 

Will Horn get to bring his judges and referee from with him to Vegas?

 

Yes, Farmy. Horn will be bringing his own judges.

They will render a verdict during the middle rounds.

 

Twins Jason and Andrew Maloney have taken preparations to another level as their fights become bigger as they prepare for their fights at Malvern Hall May 19.

Who are the pair of Filipino "world class sparring partners"?

Can't recognize them by faces.

 

Canberra southpaw David Toussaint is taking on kiwi journeyman Gunnar "The Stunna" Jackson this Friday in a tuneup for his Aussie middleweight title defense versus Jason Leuken in August.

Maybe the last chance Jackson will have at springing a relevant enough upset to propel himself into a big fight? (unless he's lucky enough to have Mundine come sniffing around for a stay-busy rematch)

 

They don't say .
